Animation Dang ol' King of the Hill appreciation thread

I'm surprised that Dale even bothered wearing a mask at all!

I think that's the joke. Dale doesn't believe in the COVID conspiracies.

Nancy is still seeing John Redcorn and Dale is likely still oblivious to it.

Also......GH! If you don't remember, that was Cotton's youngest son, whom he called "Good Hank" and Hank is like 50 years older than GH.

Just noticed they got rid of the utility pole.

Was just about to post that. Didn't know he did the voice of John Redcorn, but that's an awful way to die.

 

[Teelie]

Was coming in to say I started a proper rewatch of the original run, start to finish, but the death of Jonathan Joss is a shock. So many of the cast have died tragically over the years.

 

[Drizzle]

That's terrible. I also just learned that John Redcorn's original voice actor who Joss replaced died in a car accident early in the show's run.

Oh, so it wasn’t just a dispute with a neighbor, it was a homophobic hate crime…

I don't know why, but I really love the joke of Hank giving his driver four stars instead of five so the driver has something to work towards.

Peggy hasn't changed one bit- both Kathy Najimy and Pamela Adlon sound like they slipped right back into the roles as if time hadn't passed.

[TheVileOne]

I'm in, but Dale's new voice will take some getting used to.

I hope this goes better than the Futurama re-reboot.
